hello my inlaw has bought a p38 with the bmw engine in it he has just changed the idlers, harmonic balancer and belts for the fan and alternator, now when it starts it will run for about 4-5 seconds and cut out with quite a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust, he has had a guy out who has tested the electrics on it and it came back with no fault codes and all the senders check out ok, when it cuts out there is a lot of clicking noises coming from around the fip but I couldn't track it down, he has had the inlet manifold off and gave it a good clean along with the intercooler but there is no obvious air leaks, anyone got any ideas?
thanks dan
